Wordless Wednesday: Smoky Mountain High

Bear Jam! Nope, a Bear Jam Isn't Something You Spread on Toast. Cades Cove Loop Road, Great Smoky Mountains National Park

Business travel has landed me in Knoxville, Tenn., this week and after a work-day that started at 6 a.m. and ended around 5 p.m. (mind you, that 6 a.m. was not the time I woke up but time I started working) on Tuesday, a trip to the great outdoors was needed.

Enjoy these snapshots from a very brief visit to Great Smoky Mountains National Park on the Cades Cove Loop Drive.
